Hicks: 'Glee' actor accused of sexual battery

Actor Mark Salling has been sued by an ex-girlfriend who claims that the "Glee" star committed sexual battery by forcing her to have sex without a condom.

According to TMZ, Roxanne Gorzela says in her suit she began dating Salling in Sept. 2010. In March 2011 she consented to have sex with him, but only if he used a condom. Salling reportedly ignored her request and then forced himself on her without a condom.

Gorzela later called and texted Salling, asking if he had been tested for STDs, according to E! News. The suit claims he did not return her messages, so she went to his house to confront him. When she repeated her request, he reportedly grabbed her and pushed her to the ground, causing her to hit her head. She filed a police report on March 25, the day of the alleged attack.

The suit was filed Friday in Los Angeles, according to E! News. In addition to sexual battery, Gorzela accuses Salling of intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence.

Salling's publicist denied the allegations to TMZ, saying, "There is no truth to this. It's the textbook case of a disgruntled girl looking to cash in on a TV star's success. We turn the rest over to Mark's attorneys and have no further comment."
